\"\"Year 5 have been learning about parts of the flower and their role in the life cycle of flowering plants.\u00a0 We opened up a flower by removing the petals to look at the reproductive organs.\u00a0 We took out the stamen of the flower and wiped it on black paper to look at the yellow dust like material called pollen. \u00a0The children were surprised to see how much pollen came out of each stamen.\u00a0 \u00a0We carefully used a toothpick to open the carpel to look at the female organs which contain the ovaries.\u00a0 This is where the seed of the flower is reproduced.<\/p>\n

We then sliced an apple open to compare the inside of the apple to the lily.\u00a0 We came to the conclusion that the apple is most like the ovary of a flower.\u00a0 It protects the seeds inside.<\/p>\n
